A study by the Writers Guild of America found that while there are fewer TV writing jobs available, writing staffs have continued to grow more diverse. In the 2023–24 season, over 40% of TV writers were Black, Indigenous, or People of Color, up from 32% three years earlier. This progress, of course, came before many studios began rolling back race- and ethnicity-based hiring goals under pressure from the Trump administration.
